Abstract: |
During February 2005 seven archaeological evaluation trenches were excavated at the Lens, 34 Romham Road, Biddenham, Bedfordshire. Previous work in the adjacent site to the west had revealed a series of cremation burials and a ditch. These features were dated to the late Bronze Age or early Iron Age. When plans were submitted to develop the current site it was considered desirable to investigate if the prehistoric activity continued eastwards. The results of the evaluation indicate that the prehistoric site did not continue eastwards. The only features identified were two small undated pits in the western half of the site, and a series of garden features and an old field drain in the garden of Number 34. |
